Thank you, Mr President. The government now has the weakest minimum unconditional emissions-reduction target in the Australian parliament. Given the plea from the Nepali representatives in the parliament today for Australia to commit to a 50 per cent reduction on 1990 levels by 2020 because the big melt in the Himalayas is threatening the water supply of a billion people, when will the government increase its reckless and unjust five per cent unconditional target?
